This is a Train Wreck is a melodic skate-punk group based in San Fernando Valley, CA. Starting as an acoustic project of founding member, Paul, in 2015, the project has evolved to include members, Johnny, Trevor, and Kirsten. Their sound is distinguished by their soaring multi-part harmonies and varied take on punk rock and skate punk, and they are known for their highly energetic live shows. Their songs often revolve around social issues, mental health, and grief, delivered through infectious melodies and sweeping choruses. The subject of mental health is an important issue to the group, who regularly advocates for the national suicide hotline through songs such as “Call 9-8-8” and the suicide hotline long form number being written on one of the guitars on stage.
